A family of Old West vigilantes face off against an evil railroad baron in this adventure by the bestselling authors of The Violent Land. The Greatest Western Writer Of The 21st Century The Jensen clan is William W. Johnstone’s epic creation—God-fearing pioneers bound by blood on an untamed and beautiful land.
